Skyservice Business Aviation (Skyservice) celebrated the grand opening of its new Seattle business jet centre this week at King County International Airport – Boeing Field (BFI), with industry peers, clients, and dignitaries in attendance.
“Seattle is a dynamic economic hub in North America. Our business jet centre introduces a new standard of ease, sophistication, and luxury to the region's business aviation FBO services,” said Benjamin Murray, President and Chief Executive Officer of Skyservice. “We are excited to offer commuters, tenants, and visitors to Seattle exceptional service and personalised experiences, continuing Skyservice's reputation for excellence in the industry.”
The new 71,00 ft² fixed-base operator (FBO) and hangar complex welcomed over 200 guests over two days. As the latest FBO supporting general aviation at BFI—one of the top 25 busiest airports in the U.S. and the main business aviation airport in the Seattle area—the facility features a range of premium amenities. These include a stylish passenger lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows, a grand fireplace, a spacious pilot lounge, snooze rooms, refreshment stations, and a 12-seat executive conference centre with access to a 1,600 ft² furnished terrace with views of Mount Rainier.
